This might happen if you queue up buffers and then close the file descriptor
without ever calling STREAMON.

Calling QBUF will call __buf_prepare which will call the 'prepare' memop for
the buffer. But the corresponding 'finish' memop is only done in 
vb2_buffer_done.
But if the buffer is never passed to the driver with __enqueue_in_driver, then
vb2_buffer_done is also never called and the 'prepare' and 'finish' memops are
now unbalanced.

It's easy to test:

modprobe vivid no_error_inj=1
v4l2-compliance -s

And it will log this:
